In 2023, a 20kg case of clay cost $36. Today, the same case retails for $52. Yup. It hurts.

Why? Inflation, tariffs, mine closures resulting in longer supply chains and higher shipping costs.

Many times, one object can serve many purposes!

In October, we're offering a workshop for such versatile object.

At first, we thought it would be a Paint Brush Holder... and then a Spoon Rest, and now a Tooth Brush Holder. However you wish to use it, it works!!

When:
- Monday October 5th from 6pm-9pm
- Monday October 26th from 6pm-9pm

Cost: $70

Registration online or in-person at the store.

This coming weekend, visit artists and maker's studios (including us!) in Pembroke, Arnprior, Renfrew and Calabogie.

We are open on Saturday and Sunday from 10am-4pm.

We're preparing a restock this week in time for the first edition of the PARC Studio Tour happening on Saturday and Sunday. We will be having more stock of our Pasta Bowls, Breakfast Plates, Dinner Plates and Honeypot Mugs.

Did you know you can book a private event with us?

We can welcome 6 - 10 participants at the Studio for your group of friends, family or colleagues for a fun and oddly relaxing 3-hr clay workshop.

From September to mid-November, we have openings on Friday afternoons from 1pm-4pm and we are saving some evenings in November and December.

Hey there! You've probably noticed we changed our pricing on Clay Nights and Classes. Believe us, it's not an easy decision. It is one we've been delaying because we're all too aware of the broader economic context.

We offer workshops and classes because we love to share our passion for clay but we also need, on occasion, to sit down and be bit of a hard-nosed businessperson.

This post is meant to educate on all the non-visible things that need to happen for us to plan and run successful events.
